Qualifying Report and Standings entering second to last ALMS Race, Mosport Grand Prix

Fresh off the victory at Road America BMW Motorsport enters the second to last race first place in the overall manufacturer standings. BMW qualifies in 3rd and 7th position for the race Sunday in Canada. The team did not have a breather at all considering they have back to back race weekends and also had less than a week to get a spare M3 up and running after the wreck to the number 92. The team worked tirelessly to put the car together and it managed to qualify in third in its first outing which is very impressive.

It is going to be a tight finish and BMW needs to do well in this race in order to position themselves for a run at the championship. Watch the race tomorrow on Speed at 4:00 pm Eastern Time.

The Rahal-Letterman racing team managed to finish on the podium yet again in the ALMS series. BMW has finished on the podium in every single race this season. The problem is they finished in third place and Patrick Long/Joerg Bergmeister in the Porsche GT3 won the race. This means Porsche will take over first place. Patrick Long and Joerg Bermeister have our respect as they simply have been the best drives in ALMS this season and have taken a couple races from BMW. Unfortunately, the number 90 m3 did not finish the race due to a collision. It all comes down to the Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta on October 2nd. BMW most likely needs to win the race to win the championship.

That same GT3 is so damn consistent. All the others pull up the rear, but they can't seem to shake this guy. It's all down to the wire now. A little luck and no wrecks would be helpful. Overall, BMW really has done exceptionally well with these cars.

It is just those two drivers in the GT3, they are amazing. Patrick Long has stolen two victories from BMW by himself, guy is amazing. Long and Bergmeister will win the drivers championship.
